I found a free web site speed test to improve website performance thanks to a great post at Yargons blog today entitled “Speed Up Your Website” which made some excellent points about the use of images slowing load time. (and more but you gotta read it to know what else-smile)

Web Page Analyzer - 0.964 is easy to use:

**This post was meant to be a one day thing..Sorry, no more webinar…**

Webmarketing123.com is offering a free search engine optimization webinar today discussing natural search combined with PPC (Pay Per Click) campaigns and how they work.

You will need to register here if you plan to attend. There’s no obligation or risk if you choose to attend.

For those of you who may not know what a webinar is:

I surfed into compete.com today to check my “Learning SEO Basics” improvements or lack thereof as they have listed.
I am happy to say that what I saw was a great increase in traffic. I use other means of traffic analysis but am introducing you to two things here today. The beauty of FireFox’s “SEO for FireFox “and the free benefits of “Compete.com” to gather beginner level stats.

SEO for FireFox:

WordZe.com - Subscribe Keyword Research Tool

You only have 6 days to take advantage of the free trial

As always, I try to keep up with what’s being offered in our online communities so we Newbies can keep our heads above water!

The Wordz Keyword Research Tool provider is offering a 30 day free trial of their product. Knowing the uses of this tool I have no doubt that they’ll soon be generating substantial financial benefits from this little give-away. Once you use it you’ll see just how much UMPH is behind it and it’s likely that you too will become a fan! I am.

In optimizing keywords for META tags, we briefly touched on the use of keyword tools.

I am going to focus on keyword tool resources on this post.

There are plenty of access to free keyword tools as well as paid models out there. I have had the pleasure of experimenting with quite a few recently.

Found this tool and thought I’d share it with you. It’s not brand spanking new or anything, but it’s packed with free useful information..And if you’re like me, it’s a wake up call as to where your site’s weakness and strengths lie.
